Episode 2: Rats!
In the night of Royal Woods, a distant bell alarm can now be heard going off in the distance along with an explosion inside an industrial factory. Workers ran for their life while The Security Guards tries shooting at these creatures but were tackled by them. While four of The Full House Gang driving in Vanzilla (painted red with Ace logo printed on each side of the door), they were picking up an activity coming from an Industrial Factory owned by Chandler's father.
"This must be the same activity that happens over at the chemical factory." Ace Savvy said.
"Hang tight." High Card said.
High Card turn the van around and head straight down in full speed. Back in the industrial factory, most of security guards gets eaten alive while the rest tries to hold them defending some workers who didn't have time to rescue. The creatures surrounded them as they ready to attack them but were saved when Vanzillia burst through the wall scaring the creatures away as the workers and guards escape. High Card, Ace Savvy, One-Eyed Jack, and The Joker exited out of the van and found out who are those creatures that's been causing problem.
"Holy!"
"I guess those same activity means they got a rodent problem. A really big rodent problem." The Joker said.
That's right. They're facing giant rats. One of the rats tries to jump on Ace, but punch it away but was tackled by another one. The other rats tackled the other gang. One-Eyed Jack manages to kick the rat of and then punch it, High Card kick the rat as well and head to the van and ran over a few rats that were following her, The Joker is having a hard time trying not to get eaten. "Phew! Breath Mint! Have you ever heard of it?! Lucky for you I always carried one." The Joker said. The Joker took out three small capsules and shoved it inside it's mouth as it explode causing to collapsed as the smoke coming out of its mouth.
Ace Savvy punch some more the rats until one of the them bite his leg.
"AHH!" Ace struggles to get the rat of his leg until another one gets him from behind.
Over at the control center, a man wear a gas mask and brown mask and boots, his costume is an exterminator outfit, has rat shape ears, and an oxygen tank. He was finishing setting the factory to reach critical until he saw the heroes fighting his friends, this makes him angry. But then he noticed reaction is reaching red, he communicate the rats telling "This place is about to blow. Let's go." The rats stop attacking The Gang and leaves the factory.
"Hey, what just happen? Why are they leaving?" One-Eyed Jack asked.
"ALERT! ALERT! CRITICAL REACH IN 4 MINUTES!"
"That's why." Ace said.
"Everybody in van! Now!" High Card shouted
Everyone got it in and drove off as the place started to exploded. They parked outside of the industrial factory and watch the whole factory explode.
"At least we know who we're we fighting." The Joker said.
The Gang glared at her. "What?"
The next day at school, at the cafeteria, Lincoln and Clyde are eating their lunch. They were thinking of what happen last night on why giant rats attacking different location that was own by Chandler's father.
"You think maybe someone got a vendetta on Chandler's dad?" Clyde asked.
"Probably. The rats only attacked places that is own by him. But we need to do some more investigation after the school, and find out who's responsible." Lincoln said.
Three of his other friends approach to Lincoln and Clyde. Their names are Rusty, Liam, and Zach. "Hey, guys. Guess what?"
"What?"
"We just got invited to Chandler's party." Rusty said as he and the rest show them their invitation. "Everyone will be there. Hey, where's yours?" Rusty questioned them.
"We didn't get one. But that's cool we're not interest to go any of his part." Lincoln said.
"What?! But you always wanted to his party." Rusty said.
"Not anymore. You guys have fun. We have important things to do." Lincoln said.
"Uh, okay. See you later." Rusty said as he, Liam, and Zach leaves.
The two look across to see Chandler talking to his friends. "I'm going to go talk to him." Lincoln said getting up walking towards Chandler.
"I can't believe that happen." The short one said to Chandler.
"Yeah. But on the bright side my dad will be focus on deviation of his factory and won't be home, and think it's perfect night to start my party." Chandler said.
"Chandler, I need to ask you something." Lincoln said.
"Ah, Larry. You're here to asked me to give you invitation?" Chandler smirked.
"It's Lincoln and no I'm not here for that. The places that you're father owned has been destroyed, did you're father made some enemies?" Lincoln questioning him.
"How did you know about that?"
"It was on the news."
"Well it's none of your business, Larry. Now, beat it or else."
Lincoln ignored him for call his wrong and heads back to his table. "I guess he doesn't know." Clyde said to his friend.
"Nope. Looks like we're going to pay a visit to his dad." Lincoln said.
Deep in the sewers where a man working on his gun in the lab, swarm of rats surround him crying for food.
"I'm sorry, my little friends. I'll feed you in the sec." The man groaned. "Damn it! Those heroes will pay for hurting you! Or my name isn't King Rat!"
He finish working his gun. "There. My gas gun is all finish." King Rat put his gun in his pocket.
The rats squeaks at him. "Oh, right. I'll get you're food." King Rat pours food on to their bowls and put them on the ground as the rats rush to their food.
"Eat, my friends. Tonight...we will have our revenge. Next stop his house."
Later that night, in a tower not to far away, a man that looks like Chandler but older and has a bold spot on his head, and is wearing a business suit, is talking to someone over the phone. They're talking about the events that's has been happen lately and he's pretty pissed off.
"I don't care what you were doing I want him found now!"
Chandler's dad hang up on his phone. "It's him. It's got to be him." Suddenly he felt a drift when he sees his window is open. He got up and close the window but when he turns back he got spoke by Ace.
"I guess you do know something." Ace said.
"You dare break into my company. Guards!"
One-Eyed Jack opens the doors to show him that the guards are already unconscious. "Sorry, good sir. But right now napping so don't disturb them." One-Eyed jack joked.
"What do you want?"
"Information. Someone has been blowing your stuff up. Care to tell us?"
"Why? You're going to stop him?"
"That depends. How much info you're going to give us?"
Hi sighed. "His name is Orsen Flannegan, he used to work for my company as one of the best scientist. But for months he gotten a lot creeper, he's been talking to our tested mice as he thinks that their are his friend. The last straw is where he frees the mice after he heard that they're going to be experiment, I fired him and he leaves vowing that he will destroy everything I love and worked for. I haven't heard from him for months until now."
"And you're saying that because you killed his "friends", he's going destroy everything you own?" One-Eyed Jack asked?
"Yes, he already blow up one of my chemical factory, and my industrial factory. What else he could take something away from me?"
Then Ace and One-Eyed eyes were widened knowing where Orsen is going to strike.
Inside Chandler's mansion, the party dragged on for hours. The music is loud, and enjoyable making people dancing. Some people chill and talk to each other while others eat. Other crowd into little circles, talking gossip about one another.
"Chandler, this party is off the hook!" The Short said.
"Thanks, dude! With this party so epic, nothing will ever interrupted this!" Chandler said.
"Dude, someone is at the door."
"Must be the pizza guy. I'll get it." Chandler squeezed through the crowd. As he got to the door, a big rat burst through the door which caused the crowd to panicked and the music stop. More rats come in as everyone stood back, they surrounded Chandler. King Rat walks in to see Chandler on the floor.
"W-who are you? What do you want?" Chandler asked in fear.
"What I want? I want you." King Rat answered as he aim his gas gun at him.
Vanzilla in full speed driving through the streets. They arrived to late at Chandler's mansion as he sees everyone running of the mansion. Ace Savvy, One-Eyed Jack, and The Joker exited out of the van to rush into the mansion and found no King Rat or Chandler.
"Rats!" The Joker chuckled.
Ace groaned. "You were just waiting to say that didn't you."
"I can't help it." The Joker smiled.
High Card noticed that sewer lid has already been lifted. "Uh, guys, I think I know where King Rat took Chandler!" Everyone walk out and sees where High Card pointed.
"The sewers. Of course." Ace said.
"Please tell me where not going in there."
"We have too, High Card. Other wise we won't be called heroes."
"Right." High Card said as she get out of the van.
One by one, the gang jump into the sewers. "Ugh, I don't know what smells worst, here or Lynn's gym socks." Ace said covering his nose.
"So, how do we find Chandler?"
Suddenly, they see rats heading straight down and then turn right. "There's you're answer, Joker. Come on." Ace said as he and the gang follow the rats.
Chandler starting waking and sees he's tied up on the ground, and look at King Rat. " Good, you're finally awake. I thought my gas gun will put you a permit sleep." King Rat chuckled a bit.
"What are you going to do to me?"
"Well, let's see. Your father has been using my friends as lab rats. Each and everyone of them killed in every bad experiment. Now, I'm going to the same thing to you but much worse." King Rat communicate the rats to get close to Chandler as he whimpered in fear. "Once my friends eaten you, I'll deliver your remains to your father." King Rat laughed.
Chandler tries to crawl away but crawl back when the rats are coming in. The rats are getting closer to him until an ace card that is on fire thrown next to Chandler as the rat scared away from the fire. Chandler and King Rat looked up to see Ace and The Full House arrived. They drop down in front of Chandler. "It's about time you idiots show up! Get me out of here!" Chandler said.
"You guys again?! Kill them!" King Rat commended them.
Ace and Full House fight off the small and big size rats. Ace and High Card tossed some rats away while One-Eyed and The Joker punches and kicks them. King Rat commands more rats to attack him "There's to many of them!" One-Eyed said punching some rats. Ace look at King Rat and it appears he's concentrate which get's him and idea. He throws an Ace Card which explode a green goop onto his face causing him to lose focus. The rats stop fighting and crawls away which the gang a breath of relief. King Rat gets every goop of his face until he gets a sucker punch from Ace as he fell down in defeat.
"Looks like we "rat" out his plan for the last time." The Joker Laughed making the others groaned.
The next day, at the cafeteria, Lincoln and Clyde meet up Rusty, Liam, and Zach at the table. "Hey, guys. So, how's the party last night?" Lincoln asked.
"It's was great until he has a rodent problem." Rusty said.
"You should see the size of those thing." Zach added.
"Wow. It's a good thing we missed it." Clyde said.
They stop talk for a sec when they see the others kids talking to Chandler about last night. "So, you weren't afraid?" The short one asked Chandler.
"Not even a little. I broke free and fight of some of the rats just before Ace and his lackeys shows up to back me up." Chandler said with a smirk.
"You're so brave." Girl Jordan blushes.
"I wish I was cool as you."
"Stick with me and I'll teach you how to be cool as me." Chandler said.
"What a cool guy. Not even rats could scare him." Rusty said
"We doubt that." Lincoln and Clyde said.
"Well, King Rat is in jail, and that jerk Chandler keep his character. All is good, but what I don't get is how Orsen is able to communicate those rats since he's human." Lincoln thought
Elsewhere:
"So much for the King of Rats. Oh well, at least the drug I injected him works. Which means it will work on my other pets. Very soon Ace, we will meet." The mysterious scientist laughed.
